A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend a weekend picture book retreat with four acquiring editors at the old Mission in Santa Barbara. Kate Fletcher of Candlewick led my core group and I received a helpful 20-minute critique. On Sunday, Kathy Landwher of Peachtree and Ruta Rimas of Balzer & Bray gave helpful insights on two of my first pages and others at the retreat had critiques from Lisa Graff of FS&G. What a great SCBWI event this was. Here's a quick YouTube piece I did of the weekend.
